People have written a lot of touchy-feely pieces on this subject but I thought I’d get right to the heart of the matter
Peep the Google Doc, now housing quotes such as
They tried to bury us. They didn't know we were seeds.
Mexican Proverb
And
You spend so much time trying to make yourself more palatable that in the end you taste bland.
Sketiana, tumblr
But also,
A story doesn't have to be true to be believed, it just has to be told.
Janey Spriggs, Borderlands:TPS
Ask box is open and anon is on if you've a cool youtube smp, a gaming stream, or even a comment from instagram you feel should be added.
As an aside, thank you to everyone who has made this collection so awesome. Without you, the Google Doc would not be possible.
To The Substitute Art Teacher - Jordan Bolton
hope is a skill
“and the universe said…”
Is always accepting more inspiring quotes found on subway walls, bathroom stalls, or some role playing youtube you watch.
With quotes and lines like
The boy broke his father's rules slowly, and then, all at once.
Narrator, Sweet Tooth
Or
No more will I endure. I will not be consumed.
Estelle, Madam Outlaw
But also
Money first, morality later.

Asks are open, anon is on, and the doc is open for all to see.
[image id: a four-page comic. it is titled “immortality” after the poem by clare harner (more popularly known as “do not stand at my grave and weep”). the first page shows paleontologists digging up fossils at a dig. it reads, “do not stand at my grave and weep. i am not there. i do not sleep.” page two features several prehistoric creatures living in the wild. not featured but notable, each have modern descendants: horses, cetaceans, horsetail plants, and crocodilians. it reads, “i am a thousand winds that blow. i am the diamond glints on snow. i am the sunlight on ripened grain. i am the gentle autumn rain.” the third page shows archaeopteryx in the treetops and the skies, then a modern museum-goer reading the placard on a fossil display. it reads, “when you awaken in the morning’s hush, i am the swift uplifting rush, of quiet birds in circled flight. i am the soft stars that shine at night. do not stand at my grave and cry.” the fourth page shows a chicken in a field. it reads, “i am not there. i did not die” / end id]
a comic i made in about 15 hours for my school’s comic anthology. the theme was “evolution”
this one’s a few days late due to having a lot of doctors appointments sorry it’s just 9 pages, and about some rats… it’s more symbolic than anything really
